How do you store your switches?

As I collect more switches, I’d like a way to store them aside from old tupperware and ziploc bags. Has anyone found a type/brand of container that they’re particularly fond of? Looking for something budget-friendly and able to hold ~100 switches.

I found some decent jars at Big Lots that are great. You can also use jars from things like Jam/Jelly after cleaning them.

3" x 5" index card boxes from Walmart for both keycaps and switches. They're stackable and each box will hold 200 switches or a full keycap base kit. It's wide enough that the spacebars can lay flat too.

Thanks for the idea. These are nice and cheap, too.

I have the strawberry milk container from Dangkeebs and recently got a Skadis board from IKEA, so I'm able to store switches in the hookable clear containers so they can be on display.

Just in the baggie they came in. Never had any issues but I've never tried to make something visually appealing for them either
